Excerpt from Jesuit Missionaries in Northern India and Inscriptions on Their Tombs, Agra: 1580 1803
If we had only Bernier as our guide, we might think that the Jesuits passed unscathed through these troublous times. It was not so. One of their number, too, perished. Under the year 1633, Fr. H. Dugout, 8.j., gives us the following laconic information Fr. Ignatius Fz'alho, cut down with scimitars in'the Moghul Empire. 41 Neither the exact date nor the place of the martyrdom are known. The Meno logy for Portugal consecrates a short obituary notice to the Martyr. Hundreds of neophytes had been forcibly circum cised; the Missionaries had been cast in prison and cruelly maltreated. Fr. Joseph de Castro had been scourged. Three times, and four,executioners had struck him one hundred blows on the soles of his feet and one hundred ends on his face, till his body was all but a gaping wound. To crown all, Fr. Fialho, while, fearless of death and holding his crucifix aloft, he generously exhorted the faithful to suffer all rather than deny Jesus Christ, fell pierced with severe sword-thrusts.2 Our surmise is that the Father was killed at Agra. Oeven should he have died in the Provinces, it would not surprise us, if his remains - on the supposition that they were recovered - had been deposited in the Martyrs' Chapel. We have remarked before that, when a Missionary died away from Agra, it was not uncommon that his body was conveyed to the capital. Further researches may eventually lead to the discovery of the Martyr's tomb.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book showcases a collection of 28 Jesuit missionary inscriptions, mostly from the Church of the Martyrs in Agra, India, that tell the story of the Jesuit mission in the Mughal Empire from 1580 to 1700. This was a time of change and consolidation, first under the tolerant reign of Akbar (d. 1605) and then under his successors Jahangir and Shah Jahan. The inscriptions are a valuable source for the history of the Catholic missions in northern India and contribute to the broader picture of Jesuit missionary activity in Asia. They shed light on the Jesuits' evangelizing methods and provide valuable information about the character and impact of their work. Their presence in India played a significant role in religious and intellectual exchange, and this book offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics between Christianity and Islam in the Mughal Empire. This book will be of interest to historians of Christianity, the Mughal Empire, and Jesuit missions, as well as those interested in interfaith dialogue and cultural exchange.
